I hope that I can add in another SSD as boot drive for my AW14 without removing the optical drive >.< but I couldn't understand the part in the owner's manual which only mentions about removal and replacement of secondary HDD. So does it means in order to add in a second drive I have to remove optical drive ? Or the slot itself is in the optical drive bay ? confused T.T

I'd be grateful for anyone who can shed further light in this ><

p/s: 64gb msata is enough for caching 750gb hdd ? O_O

does this mean there are 2 SSD slots possibility in the M14 r4 ?

according to someone from dell, it will support ddr3 ram also

Ya correct also. Same here I own a macbook 2010 model after a year the battery giving alot of probs full charge last 30minits for 1 year laptop. So I went n ask them they say my warranty expire ady I have to pay. The freakin battery alone cost rm700. Was felt bad for not purchasing thier 3 year warranty which cost rm800 or more I think. Are u sure can upgrade after buy the laptop bro? If yes means I will just buy the laptop 1st bcos cash constraint n upgrade the warranty later on before 1 year.

yes, i suspect so. 180W is not for a 770m, plus the ram upgrade. 240W is more like it. 330W is much better. I think for aw, high wattage (important: must be same voltage!) should be fine; especially if you intended to fill up whatever port/slot in it with new hardware upgrades.

ivy-bridge based asus g-series, from what I have learned, has no problem using higher-power adapters. i'm not sure about the latest haswell models.

And it works totally fine ?:S howcome then... or probably it under performs?
